Abstract

1501330 Pistons GENERAL MOTORS CORP 19 Nov 1976 [8 Dec 1975] 48327/76 Heading F2T An internal combustion engine piston comprises a head member 18; a cylindrical inner skirt member 57 with an outer annular recess 10; a piston pin 14 for pivotally connecting the head member 18 and the inner skirt member 57 to a piston-rod 12 while permitting small angular movement between these members; a cylindrical outer skirt member 106 arranged in the recess 10; a cylindrical elastomeric member 108 arranged in the recess 10 between the skirt members 57, 106, being bonded thereto, and having longitudinal chambers 114 which change in volume with changing radial loads; and flow restricting passages 116, 118 in the inner skirt member 57 connecting each chamber 114 to the interior of the inner skirt member 52; said outer skirt member 106 extending radially outwardly of both the head member 18 and the inner skirt member 57. It is said that piston slap is reduced as a result of the low radial spring rate of the skirt, combined with viscous damping, while overheating is avoided by circulation of oil through the chambers in the elastomeric member.
